Got a robotic voice on the line saying "goodbye" then it just hung up. Sounds like one of those spam calls checking if the number’s in use before selling it to other scammers. I’ve reported it to Offcom to be safe.

Got a call from someone claiming to be doing a Sky survey about high bills. I told them I’m not even a Sky customer so they shouldn’t have my number. Then she snapped at me to stop wasting her time. I called her rude and then she just hung up on me.

Sorry Jane, but honestly, no one really wants to listen, and that includes me.

Jane, claiming to be some sort of local energy expert, kept asking if I could hear her. Honestly, she never even got round to explaining what she was offering before I cut her off.

Got yet another call today from a supposed energy adviser who claimed to be from South West London, but the number showed a Basingstoke code. What a load of rubbish, especially with their made-up story about £200 off each window. They keep ringing the landline nearly every day. I just keep blocking them straight away!

I picked up the phone and all I got was "Hello, are you there?" followed by complete silence. Pretty sure it was just one of those scam calls.
